I was saved-out from a 7-generation legacy of Mormonism-while listening to a Gospel in Life podcast on Jan. 7, 2020. God placed truth in my way through the relational seed planting of friends (some of whom were part of Redeemer, San Diego:)) during the last decade of my 40+ year journey in a deep wilderness of religion. The Gospel changed everything for my family that day. Thank you Lord for your durable Kingdom on earth and your durable and powerful word preached so clearly and shared in love by so many of your children❤.
Praise God for rescuing you!! Would you mind sharing at what point in the Jan. 7, 2020 podcast the Holy Spirit opened your eyes to the Gospel or what was the truth that broke through to your heart? Your testimony is very encouraging, including the relational seed planting of friends that helped prepare your heart.
I have seen many ministers speaking on video podcasts over the years, however I think Tim Keller is very much a favourite of mine as I have seen him as a man of great compassion and always spoke so well. He may very well have gone to spend eternity with our Lord now, but he has left so much for Earth's people to implement in their daily lives.
"You study the Scriptures diligently because you think that in them you have eternal life. These are the very Scriptures that testify about me," (quoting Jesus) John 5:39. I'm a teacher and curriculum writer, and I am so helped in my walk with Jesus and in what and how I teach by Tim's ability to point us to Jesus--and it NEVER gets old. Yes, God bless Tim and Kathy and all who work behind the scenes to get these solid messages out to the world.
I’m currently doing a Covenant college course at 68 yrs. Every teacher is blowing my mind. But I’ve followed Tim for years and this insight into Genesis is truly enlightening. Thank you for who you are Tim a wonderful person and man if God. With the new meaning of blessing in my lips. Many blessings Tim 🙏❤️
Thank you father God to love me first and save me, such a sinner like me...I probably still don't realize how much a big sinner I am but Jesus covered my sin. Thank you pastor Tim Keller. I thank God I got to listen to your message years ago and it changed my life. It is a privilege to me to listen to your message. I will continue to pray for your health,, your family, and your ministry!
My gosh your insight is remarkable. It puts a smile literally on my face. Thank you for this series. I am never disappointed in your teaching. May God continue to reach others through you. You continue in my prayers and wish you restored health
Wow! The more I learned about the Gospel ,more I know that there's nothing like that on the world, I feel like we never get all of Jesus, he's infinite 👏👏👏 I keep Gospel in life on my heart and prayers, these sermons helped me so much and took me back when I was far way from God
Tim Keller is best known for showing us Jesus. In this video he did it again by showing us that every main character of Genesis points to Jesus. These 3 ideas will change the way you read Genesis. Here’s a breakdown of each one: 👇 --- #1: Abraham Abraham leaves his comfort zone, goes to the wilderness where he was always a pilgrim without a settled home, so that God could turn his family into a source of blessing for all. But Jesus is the true Abraham, who in order to save us, "went out, not knowing where he was going." (Genesis 12:4, Hebrews 11:8) --- #2: Isaac Isaac is offered up, so that God could say to Abraham "Now I know that you love me because you did not withhold your son, your only son, whom you love from me." (Genesis 22:12) Jesus is the true Isaac, who was not just offered up, but actually lost his life, so that...we can say to God, about the true Isaac, looking at the cross, "Now WE know that you love us, because you did not withhold your only son from us." --- #3: Joseph Jesus is the true Joseph, because even though he was rejected, he rose up, so he could forgive his brethren and save them. --- The POINT: The blessing of God is lost in the beginning of Genesis, and throughout the book, people try to get that blessing back. But the blessing we so desperately look for in work, having spouses, lots of children, making money, can only be found in the face of Jesus.
Indeed, Jesus is the promise, the blessing we’ve been looking for from the beginning, from the book of Genesis. I am looking forward to see Jesus in every book of Bible🤗
Thanks for an insightful lesson Pastor! I especially feel impacted by seeing how Jesus is the true Abraham, Isaac & Joseph! Looking forward to the next lesson! May God continue to use you and bless you!
I thank God for blessing Tim Keller with such insightful teaching, and look forward to seeing Jesus in every book of the bible. My prayer is that God will continue to bless your ministry and your health.
Just wonderful!!!! Sally Lloyd Jones wrote the most wonderful children’s book: Every story whispers His Name. Jesus is the center of the whole Bible and the center of the universe!
I am from Asia. I love your books. I am reading center church dong balanced , gospel center ministry in your city . Chinese version . Thank you for your teaching .
I appreciate the point that we are always looking for a blessing. Can we , as Christians bless people in Jesus name? In Christ- do we have this authority?
Thank you for this series! I feel BLESSED by your exposition. Can I volunteer to translate the script into Spanish? Spanish is my first language, and I am a teacher of English as a second language.
Hello Dr.Keller, would you be able to explain what do you mean by "...who in order to save us went out not knowing whether he went" at 8:35 please? This video has been very helpful to my wife and I in understanding where and how the gospel is being revealed in the book of Genesis. Look forward to watching rest of the 65 videos to find out more about where and how the gospel is being depicted in each book of the Bible. Thank you.
What about God showing grace by clothing Adam and Eve - instead of killing them? What about the continual promise of a Messiah from Genesis 3:15? What about the promised Messiah in Genesis 22:7-8,13? What about Joseph / Jesus?
TIim, it is significant what you omit from your message, no righteous Able who is slan for his faith in the slain lambs, that He received by seeing his father and mothers sacrificial clothing supplied by God in His sovereign Grace, after they disobeyed God and forfeited the right to the tree of Life, provided for them in His sovereign Grace, and how amazing that Able saw this in His parents sacrifical skins, but Cain either did not see, or did not want to see, and the same is true of most of Christendom today, they see the guilt of Adam and Eve , but do not see God's sovereign Grace , and teach that their whole family have inherited their guilt, but not God's sovereign Grace , and because we know that says that Cain was wicked and of the wicked One, and Able was righteous and of God, meaning Cain was a child of the Devil and Able was a child of God, and therefore Adam's family were not all evil, and the third Son of Adam and Eve , Seth, began to call on the name of the Lord, so what we know of Adam's direct descendants, two out of three of his boys were believers .w all all know that this changes in the days of Noah, and only two men are said to walk with God, but even so all men were not classified as wicked
thanks, interesting - but we part at min 8 . Jacob is a Hebrew name, (in Hebrew arithmetic - gimatria = 182) he wrestled with Malac = 91 (angel). it means that Jacob struggled with-himself (malac 91 + malac 91 = Jacob 182) malac 91 ha - Elomim 91 = Jacob 182. so, as you see it's all in His mind, in his thought, in a dream. nothing to do with Jesus being Jacob (or any other person) it's between you and your conscience. Jacob certainly had to justify stealing the blessing he got by cheating Eisav being pushed by his mother. so, the Hebrew bible is written in Hebrew - surely you'll agree that the original book doesn't need translation or salvation in a different language, certainly not by someone (born 2500 years after Jacob) who never even spoke Hebrew or wrote. simple logic. the original Bible was written directly by first encounter- contact with the divine ... you can't "improve or change or add to it" not by "modern" mediators, certainty not by 4 people who again never wrote or read Hebrew. NT is hearsay after hearsay decades after ... it doesn't convey the main paradigm - if you wish to understand divinity you can extract the knowledge from the book, not through a person. no one saves you but yourself. no one forgives you but yourself - money won't buy you love, and Christians who wish to connect with their god face a line of "appointed people" standing before them a costume show from your local priest to the pope and maybe then ... conditions control promises
Genesis 1 is Lucifer and the fallen angels. They made man in their image. Man is an idol, a trap to hunt angels. Only one Gospel: The Gospel of Reconciliation. Jesus Christ came into THEIR kingdom to reconcile fallen angels unto Himself. We are the fallen angels (ELOHIM) kept in DNA chains of darkness. If you do not confess being a fallen angel in Lucifer's kingdom, then you are an unbeliever. Unbeliever = those that claim to be made in the image of ELOHIM(gods). REPENT FALLEN ANGELS.
I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed. He will crush your head, and you shall bruise His heel. (Genesis 3:15)

Wonderful! Thank you for sharing.
Wow. So glad you found your Way!!
If not for Tim Keller's podcasts, I'd be starving right now. Thank you for this word.
+1
i'm SOOOOO with you on this one.
Is there here a podcast for this as well?!
@@luismcrea6605 There is a podcast for Tim Keller on Spotify or whatever platform you use. It's called Gospel in Life.
😂
People talk most about what they love the most. You always talk about Jesus. Yes, sir! Like Jacob, it is Jesus we have been looking for all our lives.
I have seen many ministers speaking on video podcasts over the years, however I think Tim Keller is very much a favourite of mine as I have seen him as a man of great compassion and always spoke so well. He may very well have gone to spend eternity with our Lord now, but he has left so much for Earth's people to implement in their daily lives.

I needed to hear this so much. We as humans are always seeking blessing and deep fulfillment in worldly things. When all we need is Jesus.
And this first Sabbath in heaven he receives that full blessing! Well done good and faithful servant, thank you for your example of Christ in action.
How can we not worship a God like this!
I’m currently doing a Covenant college course at 68 yrs. Every teacher is blowing my mind.
But I’ve followed Tim for years and this insight into Genesis is truly enlightening.
Thank you for who you are Tim a wonderful person and man if God.

Always blessed by Tim Keller, one of the great teachers of our time. So grateful for his vitality and praying for his continued health.
Thank you father God to love me first and save me, such a sinner like me...I probably still don't realize how much a big sinner I am but Jesus covered my sin. Thank you pastor Tim Keller. I thank God I got to listen to your message years ago and it changed my life. It is a privilege to me to listen to your message. I will continue to pray for your health,, your family, and your ministry!
I would pay for a book on this series written by him!
Seeing Jesus here in Genesis makes me love Him even more. Thank you!
Tim Keller is such a wonderful pastor.
One of the things I admire about Dr. Keller (beyond his incredible ability to teach the word of God) is his humility.
I pray for the pastor so that this series will complete till the end.
God blessTim Keller!
Stunning. This was wonderful and brought tears to my eyes. So many churches would never give you this deep theology!
My gosh your insight is remarkable. It puts a smile literally on my face. Thank you for this series. I am never disappointed in your teaching. May God continue to reach others through you. You continue in my prayers and wish you restored health
He’s gone to be with the lord
Wow! The more I learned about the Gospel ,more I know that there's nothing like that on the world, I feel like we never get all of Jesus, he's infinite 👏👏👏
I keep Gospel in life on my heart and prayers, these sermons helped me so much and took me back when I was far way from God
Helping me grow in my faith walk. The gospel is changing me. Bless you Tim n Gospel n life
Thank you Tim Keller for this amazing series that is connecting all the books of the Bible in this marvelous story line.
Thankful or this insight into Jesus & how he is found throughout the Bible. Tim Keller has the gift of teaching & I learn so much from him !

Amen!

Thank you Tim you always talk about Jesus. never stop doing it🙏
I'm currently doing a (Theology of work) study and I'm truly blessed by your words.
This helped me.
Thank you. 💙
We are deeply fulfilled (blessed), if Jesus has become our Savior
Thank you for another educational and spiritual lesson delivered with love and grace. Your impact is profound ❤
Praise the Lord Jesus.🎉🎉🎉
Wonderful teaching. Thank you pastor.
Thank you so much for this new series. I greatly look forward to upcoming videos.
Thank you pastor Keller! God bless you and your team.
It's great to see Tim!
Wow!!! Just wow!!!!! Way to put it all together.
AMEN. AMEN. Merci pour ces enseignements très utiles au quotidien. Que Dieu vous garde et vous bénisse.
I needed this today. Thank you.
I just started reading through the Bible in a year and just read the account of Jacob, so this was so timely for me. Thank you.
WOW. Beautiful. Isn't it funny that Jesus never used the word "grace". Maybe that's because He is grace... alone.
Obrigado, Jesus!! 🇧🇷
I hope the content of these videos will become a book in the near future.
Amazing!
Terrific and clear bible teaching
Love it
Oh to see His face. One day!
Great stuff. Getting the blessing we're looking for!
Thank you, Pastor Tim. Praying for you.

Great and relevant, as always . Thanks Tim, stay blessed!
I know this is a new series, but I am wondering if you will create a study guide so that groups can use this series? Please do!
Yes I’m wondering what questions I could ask a Bible study group after watching this…
I appreciate the point that we are always looking for a blessing. Can we , as Christians bless people in Jesus name?
In Christ- do we have this authority?
Thank you Pastor for a message that blesses us.
So good! Thank you Tim, God bless you and Kathy 🕊
Fascinating.
Amen and Amen.
Thank you for this series! I feel BLESSED by your exposition. Can I volunteer to translate the script into Spanish? Spanish is my first language, and I am a teacher of English as a second language.
Amazing thank you for sharing
I'm wondering if there is a study guide for these videos?
Thank you.
Is it possible to get this in podcast form on Spotify?
🥹
…now we know… thx Tim.
thank you father, thank you Jesus, thank you Holy Spirit. ❤
Thank you for these. Will any study guides or outlines be made available to expand on these remarks?

Genesis 1 is Lucifer and the fallen angels.
They made man in their image.
Man is an idol, a trap to hunt angels.
Only one Gospel:
The Gospel of Reconciliation.
Jesus Christ came into THEIR kingdom
to reconcile fallen angels unto Himself.
We are the fallen angels (ELOHIM) kept in DNA chains of darkness.
If you do not confess being a fallen angel in Lucifer's kingdom, then you are an unbeliever.
Unbeliever = those that claim to be made in the image of ELOHIM(gods).
REPENT FALLEN ANGELS.
I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed. He will crush your head, and you shall bruise His heel. (Genesis 3:15)
